Gender on the work

Are there gender discrimination in your country? My country actually have it, especially work. I am going to tell you one story.
When I cheered up one female who is student and was finding job in my country. She tried a entry for big company which pay very big salary; if you can enter this company, you can get one hundred southern dollar, even though you are second year.  However, I didn't recommend her to try it then actually. The reason is because I knew that this company get employees who are almost male. As a result, she failed. Of course, I'm not sure why she failed, but maybe you think it sounds  like gender discrimination. However, they have a reason that they get only male employees. The reason why, they sell industrial products which is very high quality to small factory. In my country, worker, work for small factory, are almost male, so if female salesman go to sell their items, unfortunately, most consumers cannot believe them than male salesman. That's way they don't get female employees. It is strange? Actually, I don't think so because they need to sell their own products.

Please imagine, when you visited lingeries store, there were a lot of male staff. Most people think it is weird. That's why most lingeries company get a lot of female worker. Of course, it depends on the company and depart, but most people don't think it is gender discrimination.
In conclusion, unfortunately there are gender discrimination in my country. However, it depends on the work. Some people are really good at it but some people are not. 
Moreover, gradually some work is going to be not relation on gender: a flight attendant, banker, nurse, houseworker, and so on.
